For Julia, cosplay means equally crafting and acting as the characters she loves, and sharing her knowledge with the others as a jury member and cosplay panelist, as well as helping improve the cosplay community through her experience as an event organizer. It’s a matter of give and share, of meeting new awesome friends and of permanently adding to a wonderful book of memories. Her dedication for a certain character might go as far as redoing the same costume several times, until achieving the perfect look and feel – an art of not only cosplaying as a certain character, but transforming into a veritable live version of that character.
